There was a lengthy discussion, ia
the Senate yesterday on the question
of increasing the clerical force of the
Civil Service Commission, after
which Mr. Daniel, of Virginia, at
tacked the system itself as being un
American. un-Repabliean and nn
Dewocratic, and expressed the hope
that the new administration would
find some way by which every Ameri
can citizen might feel that there was
do bar to any office in the govern
uient, of which he was worthy; In the
House the conference report on the
Nicaragua Canal bill was agreed to.
A bank teller in Columbus, Qa.,
has disappeared, leaving a shortage

which was sunk with all on board,
about one hundred souls. Secre

Gov. Hill, last night, which was
attended by nearly every Democratic
member of the House and many
Senators. About two hundred
ship carpenters of Bath, Maine,
are on a strike against the em

Secretary Bayard has informed the
German Minister that the United
Srat-s accepts the proposition for a

made in the Senate on the amend-,
uient to the appropriation bill, pla
cing $100 000 at the disposal of the
President for the protection of per
sons and property of citizens of the
Uuited States on the Isthmus of Pan

thousand people are starving.
The great tie-op In New York city has
ended, and all of the street car lines
are iu full operation; the strikers are
aniiously seeking their old places,
and they are generally given the pre
ference on signing a paper to the ef
feet that they are not and will not be
subject to the order of any labor or
ganization. President Cleveland,
Mrs. Cleveland and Col. Lamont are

At Ann Harbor, Mich., lives Jas. L

A well known journalist, of North
Carolina birth, bat living in another
State, in a private letter of last
month wrote this, and we oopy it be
cause it ia grateful to ns and will
not offend the friends of the Stab.
He writes:
"I am an eager reader of the Stab It

caanges composed or a couple of hundred

reason way xtortb Carolinians abroad love
the Stab as the best of all North Carolina

of the very soil."
Now that is mighty good reading
to ns and we make our acknowledge
ments in due form.
Mr. G. P. Latbrop, an accom
plished man of letters and the hus
band of Rose Hawthorne, the daugh
ter of the great Nathaniel, has an
article in the North American He

The sermons preached by Rev. Dr.
Moses Hoge, of Richmond, Va., at
the Old Market Hal), are reported
etenographioally and published in the
Times and Central Presbyterian. A
Ctncinnati Presbyterian psper praises
them very highly. This moves the
State to say:
"What would the editor of the Herald

Give him a fair trial but "condemn

The Raleigh Biblical Recorder
organ of North Carolina Baptists,
thus refers to one of tbe rejected
pastors of this city:
"Rev. Dr. T. H. Priichard, of Wilming

Presidency of tbe 8oubetn Baptist Con

Tbe last argumetitum ad crume

The meeting of business men that
adj urned from The Orton on January
28th, met last night in the City Court
room. Mr. Jno. D. Bellamy, Jr., was
called to the chair as presiding
officer.
The committee appointed at the
first meeting to draw up a constitu
tion and by laws, reported that they
had not-yet perfected the instru
ment, and asked to be continued for
that purpose. They, however, sub
mitted some features to be embodied
iu tbe constitution, which were dis
cussed and adopted. The most im
portant were the following: The or
ganization should be known under
the name of Tbe Chamber of Indus
try of Wilmington, H. C; that its
officers showld consist of a pres
id eut, three vice presidents, a secre
tary, a treasurer and a board of thir
ty-six directors; that tbe first six of
ficers be selected from the board of di
rectors; that the meetings should be
held on tbe first and third Mondays
of each month; that the dues stiould
be placed at fifty cents per month.

and that there should be distinct de

immigration, sewerage, streets, and

At tbe suggestion of the chairman.
a Legislative committee was added
whnse province it shall be to look
after legislation that may affect the
city's interest in any way
During the course of the meeting
Mr Don McRae submitted some
thoughts relative to tbe possible con-
fli t between this body and the Cham
ber of Commerce, advising caution in
that particular, as any antagonism
would lessen the influence of each
body. It was stated that it was the
declared object to act as a supple
ment to the Chamber of Commerce,
and not to antagonize it in any way.
At the invitation of the chairman,
Mr. Hester, from Raleigh, also ad
dressed tbe meeting, relative to the
usefulness of such an organization,
instaucingjBeveral towns of the State
that are being thus advanced.
There was manifested an earnest
desire to enlist tbe co-operation of
the entire business community,
yonng and old, in this movement,
and thus awaken a new interest in
our city's prosperity If we will all
"give a long pull, a strong pull, and
a pull altogether, ' it will mean such
a reviving of business as Wilmington
has not seen for a long time.
Many of those present enrolled
themselves as members.

PRBSIDITT'S RBPORT.
To the Members of the Seamen's Friend
Society of the Fort of Wilmington:
Gbntlbmkh: As we meet again on
this, the 3(Hh anniversary of tbe Sea
meu's Friend Soci ty of this port, to
take counsel as to the best way to in
crease its usefulness, it is meet that
we should return thanks to our Hea
venly Father that our lives have been
spared during the past year; that our
port has been free from any disastrous
sickness or epidemio, and that we as-'
semble with a full board.
While we have made no payment
on the bonded debt o tbe Society we
have met all our obligations, .nave,
provided and cared for the crews of
two wrecked vessels until they could
get employment, and pur finances are
in a very satisfactory condition. For
a detailed report you are referred to
statement of the treasurer. .
For reasons known to you we have
been without a chaplain for most of
the year, but we have recently elected
Rev. W. M. Kennedy to that position
aud he has entered upon tbe discharge
of his duties with xeal aud energy,
and we hope for good results from his
labors tbe comintr year. In tbe ab
sence of the chaplain many of our cit
izens joined in holding prayer and
praise meetings every Saturday night
at the Bethel, which have been
well attended and doubtless been
productive of 'good.
apt. Cbristensen, the keeper of the
Home, ill make a report of the num
ber of seamen cared for at the Home.
To the American Seamen's Friend
Society of New York we gratefully ac
knowledge a donation of $ i33.36 to
aid in support of the chaplain while
we had bini in the field
We would also acknowledge a do
nation ot $40 from the city, obtained
by our Committee on Repairs, to re
pair the Lazaretto at Mt. Tirzah, and
it is now in good condition for use by
our city authorities, should occasion
require it I would again BUggestthe
beginning of a collection of a libra
ry for the use of seamen at the Home,
and would also suggest it is time we
fini bed the second floor of the Home,
as more room is needed to comforta
bly care for seamen in winter. I
would also call your attention to the
rear wall of tbe Bethel, which is bad
ly cracked and should be taken down
and rebuilt, and In my judgment it
should be attended to at once.
We would acknowledge the courte
sies and assistance of-tbe city press
in publishing our notioes and reports
without charge.
Respect fullysubmitted,

treasurer's report,
GEKTiiEMBir: When elected by
your body as Treasurer ten years ago.
the debt of the Society was $7,248 98.
and tbe income not sufficient to meet
the interest and expenses. To-day
the total bonded debt or tbe Society
is four thousand dollars , with a cash
balance In bank of four hundred,
thirty-three dollars and I 59 cents, leav-
inir the net debt to be $3,
1,066 41.
' Durine the ten years the contribu
tions from annual membership
amount to S548, an average of So4 80 a
year, so that most of our debt reduo
lion has been from our own resources
and not from outside help. In add i
tion to this gradual reduction of
debt, we have kept he property in
repair and in good condition. We
think we have cause to be thankful
and to take couratre for our future.
